Respected market leader Excellent CEO/CFO team are propelling the company Research culture blends collegiality with pursuit of excellence Opportunites to advise major companies Working in global research teams provides extra interest Gartner research experience can be helpful to pursue jobs in the vendor community Sensible emphasis on expense / travel policies, rigorous performance reviews and hiring the best

Cons

High expectations and high workrate - maybe this is a pro! Processes can be clunky for the size to which the company has grown Stack-ranking review process, though carefully applied, means that some can be disadvantaged even if they work well

Pros

- Great health benefits and salary - A few great colleagues - Talk a lot about inclusion but this has slowly been falling to the wayside - I have been struggling the write this for some time as I wish there were more positive things to say

Cons

- Leadership that does not see anyone or anything but themselves - The company has been imploding for a while lying to the public and the street - Killing off the research model has been the final decision that has made many decide to look elsewhere (including me) - Lay off after lay off has created a culture of fear
